I have a wireless broadband connection (Huawei USB modem dongle), and after a first 6-8 months of shaky, unreliable performance, it's getting to be really good - speeds are occasionally very good. However, the Huawei/ISP application that manages the connection has no built-in tool for measuring signal strength, and the Notification Area icon Image: http://s11.postimg.org/sd2097ndb/signal.jpg ...

Hello all! I hope I'm not breaking any rules by doing this, but I had an issue over the weekend where my PC wouldn't connect to the internet, and it took me hours to fix! I wanted to post what I did here in this forum since this popped up in the Google search most often so others can find it. Also I can't figure out how to put the SOLVED icon in the title, can an admin help? Thanks. Some brief...

Hi, I removed a virus using Windows Defender Offline, and now can't start Windows. Following other threads, I downloaded Farbar Recovery Scan Tool on a clean computer to a flash drive, did a scan and have a FRST.txt file. From this I'm supposed to create a fixlist.txt file, but I have no idea what to use from the FRST.txt file. I would greatly appreciate any help!

It's been happening for last 2 months, with frequency of it shortening every single time. Initially, it started to happen after playing Call of Duty: World at War. The screen was frozen once in a while I was playing CoD (I was running with maximum graphic option but with little cooling, so I don't blame that). However, it later moved onto other games while playing League of Legends or Starcraft...

My boot record needs replacement. I have given the bootrec command from the install CD a few times now and get the disk not found error. Is this drive beyond boot repair? Would one of the tools like the NTDLeader tool or Hirens etc at least recognize the HD? If unbootable I'd at least like to start the process of getting some data transferred using a different HD. At the System Recover...

I've uninstalled the generic monitor, and rebooted, uninstalled and scanned for hardware changes, uninstalled my nvidia driver and reinstalled/updated, tried a new dvi to hdmi cable, no change.

"Run in 256 colors" This sounds like less complex textures so better frames. "Run in 640x480" I know for a fact that this helps performance, but you can almost count the pixels on your screen because of how crap it looks. "Disable visual themes" I think this includes a lot of options in "change windows appearance and performance". "Disable desktop composition" I know for a fact that...

Hey again, it's me, one who probably has more problems than anyone else. Well, anyway, I'll get straight to the point. When I try to enable, start, stop, or do anything to a service from services.msc, all I get is the window with the service name saying "Not Responding", and hanging there for years if it was possible. It doesn't show any sign of trying to enable the service or do anything...
